1. To reduce the risk of fire or shock hazard, this humidifier has a polarized
plug (one blade is wider than the other.) Plug humidifier directly into a 120V,
A.C. electrical outlet. Do not use extension cords. If the plug does not fully fit
into the outlet, reverse plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified
electrician to install the proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.

never put the electric cord under rugs, near heat registers, radiators, stoves
or heaters.

How Your Humidifier Works
Your new Essick Air® Evaporative
humidifier is designed to satisfy home
humidity requirements through the
principle of evaporation of water in the
air.
Once the wick becomes saturated, air
is drawn in, passes through the wick
and moisture is absorbed into the air.
All evaporation occurs in the
humidifier so any residue remains in
the wick. This natural process of
evaporation creates no white dust like
some other humidifiers.
Set Up and Location
1) Unpack humidifier from carton and remove all packaging material, wick, etc.
from box.
2) Place humidifier on a flat level surface. Position the humidifier where the most
humidity is needed or where the most air will be circulated throughout the
house such as near a cold air return. If the unit is positioned close to a window,
condensation may form on the window pane. If this occurs the unit should be
repositioned in another location.
NOTE: Due to release of cool, moist air from humidifier, it is best to direct air
away from thermostat and hot air registers, and to position humidifier next to
an inside wall. Unit should not be placed where cold air from outside walls or
warm air from a hot air register blows directly on it.
3) Place the humidifier at least 4 inches from the wall.
WARNING:
For your own safety, do not use humidifier if any parts are damaged or missing
CAUTION: Do NOT position the unit directly in front of a hot air duct or radiator.
Do NOT place on soft carpet. We suggest placing the unit on a table or on a
bookshelf.
IMPORTANT: Water damage may
result if condensation starts to form
on windows or walls. Humidity SET
point should be lowered until
condensation no longer forms. We
recommend room humidity levels do
not exceed 50%.

Filling
Note: To avoid spillage, do not transport the unit when full of water. It is best to
separate the chassis from the base, and transport the two sections individually.
1) Lift chassis (top section) off base. Position wick in the notch at the back of the
base.
2) Before replacing the chassis, fill the base with unsoftened water. DO NOT
POUR WATER OVER THE ELECTRICAL CHASSIS. Fill the base (See
illustration) to the level marked “MAX FILL” on the center bottom of the base.
If water spills on the chassis, it must be allowed to dry completely before
turning on the humidifier. If you have only softened water available in your
home, you can use it, but you will notice a build up of minerals on the
evaporative wicks much sooner. Base capacity is 2.0 gallons. DO NOT
OVERFILL.
3) We recommend using only EPA registered bacteriostat treatment such as
Essick Air Bacteriostat, Part Number 1970 whenever you refill the humidifier
base to eliminate bacterial growth. Add bacteriostat according to the
instructions on the bottle.
4) Reposition the chassis on the base and the unit is ready for operation.
5) Plug cord into wall receptacle.
CAUTION: Disconnect power before filling, cleaning or servicing unit.
Keep grille dry at all times.
CAUTION: Do not spill water on fan motor. Electrical components must be
kept dry.

Controls and Operation
NOTE: The humidifier should be placed at least FOUR inches away from any walls
or curtains, and away from heat registers. Do not place on soft carpet.
Unrestricted airflow into the unit will result in the best efficiency and performance.
1) This unit has two fan speeds controlled by the lower right hand knob.
2) The humidity level knob is located above the fan speed knob. Increase
humidity by turning the upper knob from left to right.
3) The analog hygrometer in the upper left hand section displays the room
humidity.
NOTE: If excessive condensation occurs, reduce fan to a lower speed setting.
Care and Maintenance
Cleaning your humidifier regularly helps eliminate odors, bacterial and fungal
growth. Ordinary household bleach is a good disinfectant and can be used to wipe
out the humidifier base after cleaning.
We recommend cleaning your humidifier at least once a week to maintain optimum
environmental conditions from your humidifier.
We also recommend using Essick Air Bacteriostat Treatment each time you
refill your humidifier to eliminate bacterial growth. Add bacteriostat according
to the instructions on the bottle. Please call 1-800-547-3888 to order Bacteriostat
Treatment reference part number 1970.
